I walked down the long hallway to my room at the end of the hall. In one hand, I held my favorite Orange mango Vivanno smoothie from Starbucks, in the other I pulled My suitcase with a backpack slung over one shoulder and a duffle bag on the other. My high heels clicked on the marble wood floor as my parents followed me with another suitcase and a large handbag. The hand holding the smoothie was through the loop on Mika's leash as she happily trotted beside me. I was wearing a blueish teal striped American Eagle skirt, a white tank top to highlight my tan, and white high heeled sandals. We got to my room and I opened the door with my ID card. This was home. I sat down on my bed and patted the spot next to me on he soft mattress for Mika. She jumped up and wagged her tail next to me. I petted her as my parents said goodbye. I gave them one last hug before they left to head back to Malibu. I unpacked and decorated my room. When I was done, I snuggled with Mika on my bed while reading the latest Seventeen and waited for my roommate, Skylin, to arrive. I finished the magazine and took another sip of my half gone smoothie as the door opened.

"Yeah, watever. Go die in a hole, weirdo!" I called to my twin brother Jordan as I walked up to my dorm. I was in room 114, and he was in some other dorm. "I'm crashing your party in five!" was his reply. I rolled my eyes and pushed open the door to my dorm. My roommate, Sterling, was already in the dorm. My brother Sterling thought it was absolutely the coolest thing that my roommate had the same name as him. Mom was following me with Jaylin at her heels. All the boys and Dad were headed to Jordan's dorm. I was wearing a yellow dress from Aeriopostale ( www.aeropostale.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3934557&cp=3534618.3534619.3534623.3541050.3536152.3128374 ) some strap sandals ( www.aeropostale.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3951077&cp=3534618.3534619.3534623.3541050.1988344 ) some peace sign sunglasses ( www.aeropostale.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3932507&cp=3534618.3534619.3534623.3541050.3536159.2210368 ) and a big necklace ( www.aeropostale.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3971331&cp=3534618.3534619.3534623.3541050.3536159.2038760 ). I had my Dooney purse ( www.zappos.com/dooney-bourke-pop-novelty-bucket-bag-black-black-trim?zlfid=111 ) and matching suitcase. My dog, Boo, was being lead into the room by Jaylin. I really hoped that our dogs would get along! I looked over to the bed. "Hey! I'm Skylin!" I said with a smile. "And this is Boo, my sister Jaylin, and my Mom," I added.

"How old is, um, Boo?" I asked as Mika ran over to me and jumped up, wanting to be held. I bent down to pick her up and adjusted the bow in her hair.

"8 weeks, I just got her last week," I replied. "I didn't want to be all alone at school. Hey want to go down to the beach?"

"Cool! Sounds really fun! I promised my brother I'd wait for him here...you can leave now, Mom," I said turning around and giving her a look.
"Ok, ok. Bye!" she waved and left. I gave Jaylin a hug.
"Text me!" she said. I nodded and grinned. She left.
"God, sorry. What's taking so long?" I pulled out my phone.
WHERE THE HECK R U? I texted Jordan.

"I grabbed my swim suit and changed in the bathroom then put on a strapless white sundress and slipped on flip flops. I grabbed a towel and my board and waited for Skylin's brother. There was a knock on the door.

I walked up to the door. "Password?" I teased. "You're favorite brother?" he asked innocently. "Yeah, right," I said, swinging the door open and letting him in. "You're even uglier than before," he informed me. "Thanks, buddy right back atcha." I rolled my eyes. "Sterling, this is Jordan." "Whoa! There's a girl Sterling? That's strange...all I can think about is little Sterling peeing all over the toilet seat -" "Ok! OK!" I cut him off, rolling my eyes. "We get the picture."
Jordan hadn't been paying attention to Sterling, since he was petting Boo (he had brought Boo's brother Bean along). He looked up at the exact same moment Sterling looked up from adjusting her board. He stumbled backwards a little bit and crashed into my desk. I took a deep breath and rolled my eyes, waiting to see how Sterling would react to his clumsiness.

I giggled and said, "Watch out for the desk." Jordan laughed. He was hot. Really hot and I found myself staring a little before saying, "Well let's hit the beach." I clipped Mika's leash to her collar and put my board under one arm before putting on sunglasses and opening the door to the hallway.

"Ya. It jumps out at you. Careful, it gets ya every time," I said with a grin.
"Shut up," he replied, turning bright red and attempting to whack me over the head. I ducked, ran over to my bed, grabbed my board, slipped off my dress (I was wearing my suit under it), clipped on Boo's leash, and walked out the door.
"Are you going to get your dog?" I asked, looking back at Bean who was sitting there.
"Wha-oh yeah," he went over to him, clipped on his leash, and led him gently behind. He was still bright red. I smiled knowingly.

We walked down to the beach and I dropped my stuff on the ground before tying Mika to a beach chair, gabbing my board, and running into the ocean. A group of guys was surfing and I paddled over by them. "Hey I'm Sterling," I said. "Hey," one of them replied. He had dark brown hair and the prettiest blue eyes I had ever seen. "I'm Derek, are you a freshman?" "Nope, eighth grade," I replied as Skylin and Jordan came over.

"Hola everyone!" I cried, hopping into the water and standing up on my board in one smooth motion. Jordan followed suit and we proceeded to play our own surfing version of chicken wars. I won, sending Jordan flying into the water. I paddled over to the guys. "I'm Skylin," I said. "I'm Derek, as you probably heard. And this is Kiel, Jake, Sam, Mike, Joey, Jackson, Matt, Steve, Marc and Nate." He introduced his friends and it was obvious he was the leader. Meanwhile, Jordan came up and looked right over at Sterling to see if she had noticed his fancy fall.
